Indians For Guns

hi everyone
i recently purchased a walther cp88 pistol(.177,blued metal) .Our fellow IFGian john and Mr. Ashar Raoof helped me in choosing .till now it was smooth and the shot was accurate.Happy to have it . So now decided to go for an air rifle.ufff but its very tough for me to decide which one to purchase .i had a glance at diana ,m200,m300 5.5mm from air rifles and at the ihp models on the web.For me all the rifles looked the same i read the reviews and few threads in the forum but i'm unable to come to a conclusion.i dont have enough knowledge to choose a good one at rifles.My purpose is the pinkling and pest killing. I hope you all can help me in narrowing them and help me choose a better one
thanks in advance,
tony

Best bet, IHP. Start with an IHP, improve and then decide if you want to go for a costlier one.

some say that a canon is much better to IHP models..what do you say?

Haven't tried Canon so can't compare .. but IHP is good enough for beginning.
Good luck

IHP 35 works well for beginners

Yup! Agree with the other people, go for an IHP 35 .22 cal

Should be a good one to begin with!

Many Congrats on the Walther. Please post some pictures too.
Is it a 4" or 6" CP88 barrel?

IHP 35 .22 calibre is good to begin with, IMHO.

thanks airsniper...it was a 4" barrel and blued metal. i''ll post the pics soon.

i prefer Mastershot coz they are perfect fit for IHPs, Go for wad cutter aka flatheads for practice, or round head for performance and range. u can also choose from Gsmith pellets. master shot costed me 200bucks for a tin of 500pellets from bandhuk bhandar, indore.

i prefer removing the old polish and little bit staining to american walnut finally finished in melamine with matt finish

here i mean removing the stock and replacing it with a new one. not polishing or make over to the existing stock...

i got the answer for my query..bigdaddy has told me that it is possible to change the stock of the gun.wood which is light and strong like rosewood can be used be used for it. correct us if it was wrong...

yes, you can change an IHP stock to one that is customised.

but why do you want to do so? is your stock not fitting you properly? have you started shooting with it and found problems?

if it's only cosmetic, why go through the hassle of organising good wood and then locating a good stockmaker?

actually i didnt like the design of the stock...have no problems with the stock or the rifle..changing it for a change in the look...
